Hide AdIt is also training all team members in how to provide financial advice to young people in their care, with guidance on key skills such as budgeting, managing the cost of living crisis and balancing the costs of a weekly shop.
Helen Lambert, group head of supported housing, said: “We aim to provide good quality, safe accommodation to young people and give them the opportunity to discover who they are and what they could become.
“We are currently seeing a surge in demand from young people, who are dealing with the impact of the pandemic, coupled with the cost-of-living crisis which, sadly, we expect will hit this age group even harder in the coming months.
“In order to meet this unprecedented need for accommodation and support, we are expanding our team across a variety of roles. Previous experience in the housing sector isn’t essential, and we provide thorough training to our team members.”
